Construction of antistatic floors coated with ceramics

Cement-based controlled electrical resistivity materials

“…In addition, controlled resistivity ceramics in the form of tiles are used for antistatic floors. [2][3][4][5] Controlled electrical resistivity materials are typically in the form of composite materials with an electrically-insulating matrix and an electrically-conductive discontinuous filler, which can be particulate or fibrous. The higher the filler content, the lower the resistivity of the composite.…”

“…The higher the filler content, the lower the resistivity of the composite. These composites include those with polymer, 6-9 ceramic, [1][2][3][4][5] and cement matrices. Polymers and ceramics are usually insulating electrically, but cement is slightly conductive.…”
